Constituents from Polygonum cuspidatum.

TLDR
Two lignan sulfates, a stilbene derivative and a phenol sulfate, together with 10 known compounds, were isolated from an aqueous extract of the root of Polygonum cuspidatum showing no inhibition of lipid peroxidation and no cytotoxic and DNA cleavage activities.
Abstract: 
Two lignan sulfates, a stilbene derivative and a phenol sulfate, together with 10 known compounds, were isolated from an aqueous extract of the root of Polygonum cuspidatum. The new compounds were elucidated based on chemical evidence and spectroscopic techniques including two-dimensional NMR methods. They exhibited no inhibition of lipid peroxidation and no cytotoxic and DNA cleavage activities.

Effects of stilbenes on arachidonate metabolism in leukocytes.

TL;DR: The effects of various stilbenes (i.e., 3,4,5-trihydroxystilbene, 3, 4,5,trihydroxylstilbinene 3-O-d -glucoside and 2,3,4',5-tetrahydroxystielbene 2-O-, d-glucose) isolated from the roots of Polygonum species on rat peritoneal polymorphonuclear leukocyte lipoxygenase and cycloencogenase activities were studied in this paper

Effects of Stilbene Components of the Roots of Polygonum cuspidatum SIEB. et ZUCC. on Lipid Metabolism

TL;DR: It was found that intraperitoneal or oral administration of resveratrol or piceid reduced triglyceride synthesis from 14C-palmitate in the liver of mice and these stilbene components did not affect hormone-induced lipolysis in fat cells from rat eqididymal adipose tissue.
